Winter parking ban in WPI peripheral property area


Courtesy of John J. Hanlon Jr. - Director of Public Safety

The following is a list of streets in the WPI peripheral property area and information concerning the no parking side with respect to the Winter parking ban, which is in effect from December 1 to April 1 (from 2:00am to 6:00am) and at any time that a snow emergency is declared after 2" of snow has fallen and stays in effect until the street is plowed.

Again the category called SIDE will indicate the SIDE of the Street that NO PARKING is allowed. For example: if the word EVEN appears, then parking is not allowed on the side of the street with house that are even numbered (2-4-6 etc). If the word BOTH appears then there is NO PARKING ON BOTH SIDES of that street. The word NONE (NO PARKING BAN) mean that parking is allowed on both sides of that street.
